Abstract

Assessment is an essential part of the learning process because it measures progress toward learning objectives. One type of assessment suitable for today’s learning needs is authentic assessment, which assesses students’ competencies in a real-world context. However, many teachers still lack the skills to develop authentic assessments. Therefore, training activities are needed to help teachers improve their ability to design authentic assessments. To overcome this problem, a structured training program on developing authentic assessments integrated with local wisdom was conducted. This approach was chosen because local wisdom is closely related to students’ daily lives and helps them understand science concepts more easily. The training was carried out using three main strategies: (1) identifying learning objectives and local wisdom potential, (2) formulating competency achievement indicators, and (3) developing authentic assessments. The results of these training activities show positive outcomes. Based on questionnaire responses at the end of the training, the program helped teachers develop and refine authentic assessments that are more contextually relevant and meaningful.

Abstract

The designation of the UNNES Special Purpose Forest Area (KHDTK) at Mount Ungaran has brought new opportunities and uncertainties for communities living adjacent to the forest, particularly in Desa Ngesrepbalong, Kendal Regency. Many residents were not fully informed about the change in forest governance, the boundaries of the KHDTK, or their potential roles in its management. This community service program aimed to strengthen local understanding and encourage collaborative engagement in conservation and sustainable utilization of the forest area. The activities were conducted through coordination with local authorities, socialization sessions, field visits, and participatory discussions involving village officials, forest farmer groups, and community representatives. Data were gathered through observation, interviews, and feedback forms to assess changes in knowledge and attitudes. The program found that direct dialogue and joint field supervision of forest boundaries significantly reduced community concerns, particularly among coffee farmers previously involved under the Perhutani scheme. The transition from one-way socialization to participatory collaboration helped build mutual trust and opened pathways for sustainable partnership between the university and local stakeholders. It is recommended that follow-up programs focus on structured community-based forest management schemes, continuous mentoring, and integration of conservation principles into local economic activities to ensure long-term sustainability.

Abstract

Violations in the payment of Religious Holiday Allowance (Tunjangan Hari Raya/THR) remain a recurring issue in labor practices in Indonesia, including in Surabaya. This community service program aims to enhance workers’ access to justice through legal awareness and assistance in reporting THR violations. The methods employed include participatory legal education, complaint clinics, and case-based assistance. The results indicate an increase in workers’ understanding of their normative rights and a growing willingness to report violations. Empirical data show that in 2024, there were 26 complaints involving 1,203 affected workers, while in 2025 the number increased to 56 complaints involving 1,811 workers. These findings suggest that THR violations remain systemic and require sustained legal intervention through community-based assistance mechanisms.

Abstract

Community economic empowerment is a strategic approach to addressing the complex, multidimensional nature of rural poverty. This study aims to analyze the policy formulation process for an economic empowerment program to alleviate poverty in Dewa Tana Village, Central Sumba Regency. The method used was community service (PkM) with a participatory approach, implemented in three stages: planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. The research subjects comprised 15 participants, including village officials and community leaders. Implementation techniques included lectures, discussions, demonstrations, and a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach using social maps, cause-and-effect diagrams, and economic seasonal calendars. The results showed an average increase in participants' understanding of 22% based on pre-test and post-test scores across policy concepts, structural factors, cultural factors, and poverty analysis. The findings also identified that the main obstacles to policy formulation include geographical, socio-cultural, and institutional factors, as well as the low quality of human resources and limited community participation. This activity resulted in a follow-up plan in the form of a policy model based on local potential and strengthening synergy between academics and the village government. This research recommendation emphasizes strengthening community participation, increasing human resource capacity, and developing sustainable programs tailored to local needs to enhance the effectiveness of poverty alleviation policies.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal disorders and reduced physical function are common health problems that may affect individuals across different age groups and contribute to decreased independence and quality of life. This community-based program aimed to promote musculoskeletal health through integrated health screening, exercise training, and physiotherapy services in Klitren Village, Yogyakarta City, Indonesia. The program was conducted in April 2026 and involved 98 participants aged 12–78 years. The activities included health screening, musculoskeletal assessment, postural screening using the REEDCO method, exercise and stretching training, and physiotherapy intervention. Health screening identified elevated blood glucose levels in 25 participants (25.5%), elevated uric acid levels in 13 participants (13.3%), and elevated cholesterol levels in 8 participants (8.2%). Musculoskeletal assessment revealed shoulder pain (27 participants), back pain (22 participants), and knee pain (14 participants) as the most frequently reported complaints. Postural assessment was performed in 34 participants, identifying severe postural deviations in six individuals. Twenty-one participants received physiotherapy interventions consisting of manual therapy and therapeutic exercise. Program evaluation demonstrated a 98% satisfaction rate, while more than 90% of participants reported good understanding of the exercise program and willingness to continue exercising independently at home. This integrated community-based approach may facilitate early identification of health and musculoskeletal problems, improve exercise awareness, and support self-management strategies. Future programs should incorporate regular follow-up and long-term evaluation to assess the sustainability of exercise adherence and health outcomes.

Abstract

Schools are vulnerable to disasters, especially elementary schools, because most of the children there lack the skills needed to respond to disasters.. The identification revealed that elementary school Y is a school with a large student population but a building with a high risk of hazards, both in terms of construction and environmental hazards and fire hazards. This school has begun implementing a school safety system in the initial stages, including the installation of simple safety infrastructure. However, in terms of human resource organization, improvements are still needed, as the school is not yet able to organize its members, especially students, during emergencies. Furthermore, the student population is highly dynamic, with student turnover occurring annually. This requires schools to conduct disaster simulations regularly throughout the year to enhance the preparedness of the school community. Real-world conditions indicate that schools are not yet adequately equipped to organize large crowds during emergencies and do not yet have standard safety induction materials that can be used consistently to train all students in disaster preparedness in responding to hazards. The community service activity produced a school disaster mitigation pocket book that can be used as a safety induction media for its residents, and the training results showed an increase in pre-test and post-test scores by 22%. In addition, the results of the evacuation simulation practice showed that the total time required was only 1 minute 51.75 seconds for all students to be present at the assembly point. This indicates an increase in students' understanding and preparedness in responding to emergencies. This activity supports the achievement of Asta Cita 4 and Sustainable Development Goals, especially goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being) and goal 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities).

Abstract

This Community Service program aims to assist PMI in making daily expenditure decisions and financial management for long-term impact. The material presented focuses on how income should be divided according to priorities, how to have a good remittance plan, and how safe digital transactions are carried out. Participants in this service amounted to twenty PMIs. The program included material presentation, discussion, mentoring, and evaluation. Participants conducted a pretest and posttest as a form of measuring participants' understanding after this activity was held. From the results of the quantitative assessment, the average score of participants' understanding of financial literacy increased from the original participant's understanding of financial literacy by 53.7% to 90%. The average N-gain value was 0.79, 16 participants were in a high position and four participants were in the medium category. This shows that financial education is beneficial with the situation faced by PMI.
